After maternity leave I have been given what is an effective demotion. I have the same title/salary etc but it’s a much smaller role than I used to do. I had no issues with my work before I went onto mat leave, and enjoyed my job.
Since coming back into this new role I feel like I have lost all my confidence. I am interviewing as much as possible to leave (unsuccessfully so far). I’ve just been sent some bad feedback by my boss’s boss by email and I feel devastated that I appear to have become someone who is underperforming in my position. I’m sat in tears (working from home).
Has anyone gone through this after maternity leave and come out of the other side? I can’t believe I’m in this position. Does anyone have any advice?
